The Stat Matrix with various chips

The Stat Matrix handles Sora's level growth and abilities. Similar to Final Fantasy X's Sphere Grid, you progress on a line of circuitry within the matrix, whose paths are segmented into blocks. Throughout Sora's quest, he'll receive panels like Strength Ups or Magic Ups that can be placed in those blocks, amplifying the applicable stats, and progressing further through the matrix. At each level up, you will also gain a Level Up panel, similar to Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, that will grant Sora a boost to all his stats. Scattered all throughout the matrix are ability panels, which when the line of active circuitry connects to one, you will gain abilities like Scan, Combo Plus, and Dodge Roll.It should be noted that any panels placed onto the matrix cannot be removed but can be replaced with another chips, yet, as long as an empty circuit is lit up, you can place a panel in it, even it's not a part of the previously expanded circuitry path.

Unlocking command and accesory slots

Extra slots for the player's Command deck and accesories are also acquired through the Stat Matrix. In order to unlock a new slot, the player must connect chips to both wires leading to the command/accesory slot.

Expanding the stat matrix=

As you progress through the game, the matrix will expand, offering branching paths of circuitry to follow sometimes with beneficial abilities at their ends. Expansions usually occur at the beginning of new chapters, with the last part opening up after clearing the game.

Cheats

There are 5 tuners, called "cheats" on the stat matrix. They influence the balance of the game, though they're not to be confused with actual cheats, since they don't destroy any challenge in the game. The five cheats are:

- The Difficulty cheat, which allows the player to change the difficulty level: the 4 difficulties are Beginner, Standard, Proud and Critical. Each difficulty level offers different drops from the enemies. 2 trophies are also awarded for completing every world on proud and critical, respectively.
- The Loot cheat, which increases the drop rate of items, but decreases Sora's HP. The maximal drop rate is 16x, which sets Sora's HP at 10% of the original.
- The Prize cheat, which increases the drop rate of prizes (HP and Munny, but not SP and score prizes), and also increases enemies' Strength, the two values being the same (e.g. 2x enemy STR with 2x prize amount), save for the 0x prizes, which sets enemy STR to 0.8x
- The CP cheat, which increases CP (used to power up deck commands), but lowers received EXP.
- The HP cheat, which lowers both Sora's and the enemies' HP. Setting it to 0% sets everyone's HP to 1. A trophy is awarded for completing all worlds with the HP1 status.

Dual Processing

If the player connects two CPUs with chips, the effect of the chips between them doubles (e.g. a STR+2 chip gives 4 points to STR)
